Jake Earl
Pharmacist (PharmD), and Health Economist (MS) with clinical and payor expertise and in-depth training in Health Economics and Outcomes Research (HEOR).
I have worked for a Managed Care Organization, a research hospital, and a large pharmaceutical company. I have built and analyzed various economic models and conducted various Real-World Evidence (RWE) studies utilizing claims data. My knowledge is always growing and includes biostatistics, epidemiology, and coding with R, SAS, SQL, and VBA. My goal is to generate impactful research that depicts a clear message and ultimately become a leader within my field.
